Dogs are amazing. They can be such a large part of your lives. I could not imagine mine without my two bad girls. I have seen the nail thingie on tv and wondered if it worked, both of my dogs freak totally out to have to go get their nails trimmed. I may have to get that. And I did not know doggie litter existed...I telll ya, you are a wealth of information. Thanks for sharing this tip. Riley has the cutest face ever....next to my two of course. I really enjoyed this week reading on your day to day life. Have a great weekend.

#5 -- The crowning achievement of this wonderful week of posting. I laughed when I saw the cheese. Beau can hear the refrigerator door and cheese wrapper from anywhere in the house. And he loves Honey Nut Cheerios...but doesn't like the plain ones.
When we had the dog food scare, I discovered Cesar foods and we stopped having the daily struggle to get him to eat his dog food.
And your right. Not spoiled, but very well loved. Give Riley a hug for me.

Sara~This was so much fun! I love the pictures of Riley. He's a natrual~ I have 3 maltese and I couldn't live without them. I blog about my pups at meandmyshadows@wordpress I've often thought about the puppy litter. I use puppy pads for Bella and Bindi and even for Boo on rainy days, do you think adult dogs could be taught to use the litter? Thank you for the smile this morning!

I love the Life of Riley thing. That bordered on priceless. And he drinks from the sink! We had a cat who would jump on the sink and 'ask' for water. He also went to the door and meowed to be let out to potty. Enough about my cat, who was also white like Riley.
I think you should do the responsible thing and put a disclaimer at the end of this post like Disney did at the end of Beverly Hills Chihuahua. It has to say a pet is a lifelong commitment, etc. If you don't do something, Maltese sales are going to quadruple by noon!

What wonderful pictures! What a beaufiful tribute. I COULD NOT live without my dogs. Before I was properly diagnosed, with Severe RLS, I had become suicidal. My dogs literaly saved my life. My husband and children could (and would) take care of themlselves, but who would take care of my 4 legged babies? I gives thanks for my puppies each and every day...Thank you so much for sharing!

Pure sweetness and joy. How fun! What a successful week... well minus the migraines of course. We went for the big breed... and while my husband grew up with dogs, our golden retriever is my first... well child. Because we passed "dog" a long time ago. She has been at my side for 12 years now and we are just trying to savor the days as she has slowed considerably. So thanks for taking me back to puppyhood and all the fun!

What a sweet puppy!!
I just came over from Ree's comments. :^) I had to tell you I scoured the internet to find a small porcelein or ceramic soccer ball to go inside that box but couldn't find any such thing... other than soccer ball beads!
You have a great blog!

Sara,
Thanks for the series you posted this week. Your photos remind me of our little West Highland White Terrier, Gator. They would have a great time together, I do believe.
From reading your posts and hearing your voice in them, I must say, you a remarkable person. Thanks for sharing your great outlook on life.

1. Your dog is, indeed, cleaner than my children.
2. I'm totally going to go out and buy that nail filing contraption! I've seen it in the stores, and was just waiting to hear from someone that it works. Our dog is so high-strung he has to be muzzled and/or sedated to have his nails trimmed, and can only have them done by professionals at the vet. I haven't had a pedicure in years, but he gets one monthly : ) Maybe this new-fangled invention will be the answer to our prayers!
